Stormy's Steps

Headed to the Vet for our first check up!

Headed to the Vet for our first check up!

Today we had our very first check up! The Vet took off his bandages and said he’s healing great – also, our Vet thinks Stormy might be the oldest dog to go through amputation surgery and live! He said they were fully prepared for him to die during the operation 🙁 Not nice to hear, but better to hear now that Stormy is a-okay. We’re going to do some more research into this.
I think the best part of the check up was when the Vet picked Stormy up too quickly and Stormy pooped on him. Lol! Stormy has never done that before, the Vet said he must have just startled him. Either way, very funny!
We were told we could up his pain meds a bit though, since he’s yelped randomly a few times.
Oh, and we were advised to take down the barriers around our house and let him walk where he pleases – he will learn better that way. Stormy is super excited to be allowed in the kitchen again and has been taking the wooden floors like a trooper 🙂

Headed home, clean and sleepy!

    Stormy, your eyes are so full of life and love! I love you! You’re looking pretty good, pal, and by the sounds of thing you’re recovering like a champ. Keep it up, bud!
